Australia prefills all the information from employers, banks, share market registers so most people can log onto the government website, go to their tax account and accept the prefilled form
Here in the UK I have never had to file taxes. It’s all done as PAYE. Whatever software your employer uses will work out how much you owe via your tax code each pay packet and it’s auto deducted. It’s only self employed people (maybe other types of earner, I wouldn’t know, I’m just a waged employee) who have to submit their tax forms. It’s weird other countries aren’t doing it this way.

Yeah, most places do. AFAIK it’s just Canada and the US that don’t.
